They dont deal with bullying and they 100% pick favorites

Overall the best in the area! The teachers and parents really put a lot of effort into making things fun while learning.

As someone who spent all four years of middle school here, I can tell you that it is a horrible place to be. As with most schools, some teachers were amazing and some were horrible, there isn't really much of an in-between. This school's biggest problem is bullying, they simply don't really care. They want to keep their reputation of being one of the best schools in the area, they do everything in their power to keep the bullied kids quiet or get them out of the school. They don't care about the student's well-being. Their current principal is a complete baffoon, who simply does not know what he is doing. He lets certain parents walk all over him, and follows whatever they say, without any regard to the other people involved. I'm currently in the high school now, and I can tell you that many of the problems still continue there. I cannot tell you if the principal is good or not as I haven't had any dealings with him, but the guidance office is a total, utter waste of time as they do nothing to help you and don't care about your future. I do NOT recommend sending your children to this school.
